Chapter 912: I hope that you can get serious
After a week of audition elimination, the number of candidates for the Iron Man actor was reduced from the last 50 to ten. In order to select Tony Stark from the last ten people, several of the crew members began frequent discussions.ん
"David, this is not the case, I need you to come back again. Remember, Tony Stark's pride is the kind of engraved in the bones, and does not need to be revealed through the appearance, so the tone of your speech needs to be taken for granted. ""
With the last ten candidates left, the crew no longer conducts a centralized audition, but in turn conducts deeper discussions with the candidates and auditions, and gradually eliminates them, so that the most suitable candidates can be selected in more detail.
In a conference room in the studio, Eric patiently explained to David Duchoney, who was involved in the discussion today, his opinion of Tony Stark.
David Duchoney was supposed to be the actor of the archives. Due to the change of history, he is still only a small character in various independent movies or TV shows. Eric didn't feel much about David Duchovny's performance in the archives, but he was impressed by his other work, California. The cynicism of the desperate writer Hank Moody, played by David Duchovny in California, is impressive.
After Eric finished, David Duchoney, sitting on the opposite side of the sand, thought for a moment and said, "So, Eric, I will try again."
Eric turned his head and told the staff next to David Duchovny to line up, but noticed that everyone including Jos Verden looked at himself differently. This is obviously not the first time. In recent days, Eric always feels that the atmosphere around him is somewhat inexplicable. At this time, he finally couldn’t help but burst out: "I warn you, then dare to use this kind of worship all day long. Look at me, be careful, I will deduct your salary, Sally, and just revisit the scene with David."
Several people sitting around the sand sneered, the production assistant named Sally picked up the slogan, looked at David Duchovny, got confirmation, and began to read the Vanity Fair magazine in Iron Man. Reporter Kristen’s line: "Some people say that you are contemporary Da Vinci, what do you think?"
"It’s all nonsense, I don’t paint."
"What another nickname do you think, death businessman?"
"This is not bad," David Duchovny said. "Let me guess, Berkeley?"
“Actually, Brown University.”
"Well, Miss Brown, this world is not perfect, but we have no choice. I assure you that if you don't use weapons for peace any day, I will switch to the Children's Hospital."
The two are about to continue, Eric will interrupt: "Ok, still not, David, your tone should be faster, and this scene can not be too careless, probably, um, anyway, you Think about it again, we can't change it."
David Duchoney hesitated and said: "Eric, can you give me a demo?"
Eric had not been able to find a suitable adjective for a while. Listening to David Duchovne, he did not think much, nodded and turned to the production assistant: "Sally, it started from the beginning."
Eric said, but did not see Jos Verdon behind him excitedly gestured to the photographer responsible for the video recording, the other naturally turned the camera to Eric.
Sally noticed the small movement of Jos Verden behind Eric, but pretending to hang down and seeing the script in her hand: "Mr. Stark, have you rehearsed this sentence many times? ”
Eric didn’t have to look at the lines at all. Whether it’s the audition in the recent period or the memory in his mind, Eric is familiar with the whole script. Similarly, no one knows more than what he wants. The effect, quickly sorted out the thoughts, Eric replied naturally: "Every night before going to bed, I said to the mirror."
Sally nodded: "I can see it."
Eric’s mouth was a little cynical smile, staring at Sally: “I hope you can see it with your own eyes.”
Stared by Eric's natural and aggressive eye, Sally felt her face suddenly hot, dodging, and her tone was a bit embarrassing. Although she was already familiar with the script, she still missed it. The line: "Mr. Williams, I, I hope you can be serious."
"" Eric is speechless.
"Haha." Everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh.
Sarah was even more red-faced, and there was a feeling of incompetence. She raised her hand in front of her and got up and ran to the bathroom next to her.
Looking at the girl’s move away from the wild, the laughter of everyone’s heartlessness is even greater.
After a while, Eric patted his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, let's continue. Skip this paragraph and change the episode of Colonel Tony Stark and Colonel Roddy on the plane."
Eric said that everyone will converge and laugh and start to discuss.
Near the evening, David Duchovne left, Eric is about to discuss with David Schweden and others about David Duchovne's performance today, but he listened to Josveden: "Eric, I will get off work right away. How about going for a drink together?"
Eric wonders: "Well?"
"I mean, there are still a few good bars in Venice Beach," Josweden said. "And, I want to talk to you about another thing. In fact, this is what everyone means."
Eric looked at Jos Verden's expression and nodded: "Well, that's where I am today."
Due to the rise of Firefly Studios, Venice Beach near Prea Vista has become a frequent gathering place for Hollywood filmmakers in recent years, and many leisure venues such as restaurants, cafes and bars have also emerged.
Following Jos Verden's arrival at a bar called ‘light’, Eric suddenly realized that he had not had this experience for a long time.
It happened to be after work, although the night has not yet arrived, the bar has already started to be lively.
Eric wore sunglasses and followed Jos Verden into the interior of the bar. He watched him greet him with his boss and asked for a more hidden deck in the corner of the bar. The two sat together.
Asked for a beer to the waiter who followed, Jos Verden asked: "Eric, what do you want to drink?"
Eric felt that the cool waitress was staring at herself and squinting. She took off the sunglasses and glared at the girl with big eyes and made a snoring expression. She laughed: "I want to A beer."
"A female waitress nodded and turned and hurriedly walked away, but it took a while to carry two more beers, the face was obviously filled with makeup, and some exaggerated earrings were removed from the ears. Putting the beer in front of Eric and Jos Verden, the girl did not leave, and boldly asked: "Mr. Williams, can I take a photo with you?" ”
Eric smiled and shook his head: "Sorry, miss."
The waitress was not discouraged. He took a business card from the short jacket pocket and handed it over directly: "Mr. Williams, this is my number, call me."
After this sentence was finished, the waitress did not give Eric the opportunity to refuse, and turned and twisted the slender waist.
Eric took the business card and looked at it. "Jenny, oh, I think Jennifer is better. I like the name Jennifer."
Jos Verden smiled and said: "You call her now, let her change the name, I think the girl will never refuse."
"I didn't have the heart to do this boring thing," Eric shook his head, placed his business card on the table, and looked at Jos Verden. "So, Jos, what do you want to talk to?"
"Eric, you think, which one of our recent audition candidates best complies with your requirements?"
Eric smiled and picked up the business card on the table and said, "I guess, what should you talk about tonight is not this?"
Josveden shrugged and said: "Eric, I think you must have realized the mood of everyone during this time."
"Ok?"
"All of us feel that you are the one who knows the most about Tony Stark. I have experienced all the auditors during this time. In recent weeks, you have been repeatedly coaching how these actors perform. It is time to use that expression, it should be in that tone."
Eric looked up: "Do you want me to play Tony Stark?"
Jos Verdon nodded. "I have discussed it privately with Mr. Kasenberg, Mr. Arad. They all think this plan is feasible."
Eric hesitated for a while, remembering the audition process in recent times, he was really dissatisfied with all the auditors, even when recalling the performance of Robert Downey Jr. in the memory, Eric also felt that many of his details were not performed. Do your best.
"Jos, you have to know, I am already a producer now. If I star again, your director is always possible."
"If you can make this movie more perfect, even if I let out the crew, there is no problem," Jos Verden said without hesitation: "Eric, I am also a comic book fan of Iron Man, so I hope this part The movie can have a actor who is best suited to it."
"I didn't even participate in the audition. Although I know what kind of Tony Stark I want, can you be sure that I can perform?"
Jos Verden smiled and said: "Eric, I don't think you even need to perform, as long as you can perform in the true colors. Look at the afternoon Sally and your reaction to the lines, you know, in other actors. In front of him, Sally has never been blushing. As a playboy, Tony Stark is a must-have for being able to have a strong appeal to women. Also, well, I have secretly observed you for a month, yours. A lot of words and deeds are very similar to the Tony Stark we want."
Eric unknowingly folded the business card in his hand into a paper plane. He listened to Jos Verden’s words and looked up again. “Well, let’s pick one of these ten people first.”
Jos Verden feels that Eric’s tone has been loosened and hesitated without hesitation: “Eric, I know that you are very busy, but you should also be aware that Iron Man’s shooting does not take you too much time. The planned shooting cycle is four months. If the schedule is tight, you only need to stay in the crew for less than two months, and most of them can be done in the Los Angeles studio, even if it is a foreign drama. We just need to rush to the neighboring Nevada."
"The key is not these, Jos," said Eric. "The entire Marvel movie universe, Iron Man needs to play no fewer than six films."
Josveden said: "But this is not a problem. Eric, except for a few Iron Man's biography, other crossovers, you must play fewer plays, maybe not even for a month. And, we make A film related to Iron Man, the average period should be two years, two months every two years, I think for you, is not a problem?"
"It seems that you are making up your mind to let me personally come?"
Jos Verden smiled and said: "Eric, say what you said, don't you really think about playing this role in person?"
Eric’s eyes flashed and said: “I thought about playing the role of Hugh Hefner, and I don’t know if he has 2ooo girlfriends now.”
"Haha, that's the tone," Jos Verden smiled. "Tony Stark's tone."
"Okay, okay, I think about it, tomorrow, um, the day after tomorrow, I will reply you." Eric lost the little paper plane in his hand to Jos Verden, and the plane crossed the block and flew. In the adjacent compartment, a girl’s scream was heard.
Jos Verden knew that Eric’s mind had been loosened, and he had to lobbied a few more words. Two petite girls walked over with enthusiasm. A girl sinned, but at a glance she recognized Eric, angry. The expression suddenly closed up, but for a time I didn't know what to say, and I was like two little sisters.
Eric’s mouth was smiling and he looked at the two girls with great interest. He raised his hand and pointed to Jos Verden: “It’s this guy who is throwing things, don’t look for me.”
The little black dress **** the left responded at this moment and quickly said, "Yes, sorry, Mr. Williams is fine."
With that said, the girl in the black dress will take away the companion next to him.
Eric looked at the girl with a little bit of baby fat on her face. "Sarah, right? I just remember your name, Sarah Michel Gaila." Eric looked at another girl and knew why: "What is your name?"
"Ah, me," the girl in the black dress didn't expect Eric to know her friend. She quickly said, "My name is Jennifer Love."
"Oh, another Jennifer, I like Jennifer's girl, can you please have a drink?" (To be continued.)
